Seems like a strong signal the money burning party is coming to a close. Nearly all AI companies have tightened their belts in the past month. Anthropic removed Claude Code from the Pro plan, Z.AI increased their prices, GitHub removed some Claude models from Copilot, now this.

Also, Opus 4.7 seems like a model more intended to save Anthropic money than push the bar.

Not really sure why I would stick with Copilot after this, and increasing Sonnet from 1x to 9x for annual subscribers is highway fucking robbery. Very glad I didn't commit myself to an annual plan.

It's amazing how much I was able to build for $40/mo- something that would have taken a team of 100 twice the time just a few years ago.

Will always be grateful for the greed of trillion dollar corporations that subsidized me.
